Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

As for 3 of my previous cars, I returned for the 'Paintshield' team to protect my recently acquired 996 Turbo in Polar Silver and fitted with the factory aerokit; they've already covered the front end only of a 997 Carrera 4S, a 987 Boxster S, and my daughter's New Beetle Cabriolet.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

As for 3 of my previous cars, I returned for the 'Paintshield' team to protect my recently acquired 996 Turbo in Polar Silver and fitted with the factory aerokit; they've already covered the front end only of a 997 Carrera 4S, a 987 Boxster S, and my daughter's New Beetle Cabriolet. However, today I collected the Turbo which has been covered from top to toe and front to rear! In other words, it's fully protected. I never cease to be amazed at the quality of all aspects of 'Paintshield': the customer care, paint protection film, computer aided design and cut of each piece of film and the installation. Tom Wakeford and his team are masters of their art - and I can do no more than recommend them unreservedly to all forum members. I will be attaching some pictures when I get the opportunity to take them; however, to be honest, they'll show you little as the film is transparent and the fit perfect - so that, unless you were shown or looked in great detail, you wouldn't be aware that it was protecting the car. One piece of bad news - for me! Whilst driving the car to the 'Paintshield' HQ in Grantham, the bonnet suffered 2 chips - which I touched in before the car was covered. Unsightly though they are, they are a stark reminder of the benefits of paint protection film; had it been installed then I know that the damage would not have occured. As for cost, talk to Tom! If you want to see the car and the film, I've offered to display the car on the 'Paintshield' stand at the Silverstone Classic over the period 25-27 July; and before anyone suggests otherwise, I'm doing it because I want to and because I am the satisfied customer that every business needs! Yours, Del
